When I first heard about Sonic Unleashed, my reaction was less than joyous. "Sonic as a werewolf? Desperation, yes?" Anywho, Now that I've played it (not beaten, yet), I actually like the game. Frustrating as hell, sometimes, but that's because I'm a sucky player. Though I've heard some people who are waaaaay better than me actually have frustrating moments too, so it's a well-rounded game as far as the challenge is concerned. Gameplay is awesome & smooth, scenery is beautiful, people/characters are interesting, and the music fits the environment and the mood. Sonic is, indeed, speedy again. Nothing is more fulfilling than watching the airspace around him ripple when you boost. And the werehog stages are fun too. Stretchy, clobbery, slashy, bashy fun . Except for the thin beams that I tend to fall off of. Curse them . That aside, it's a very cool game, and highly recommended to rent or buy. (personal choice, but go for the 360. I haven't played the Wii version, but I heard they made some cuts, so for full experience, I recommend the 360. I bought a friggin 360 and 32" HDTV for this dern game )

I joined the were-hog fanclub... what? HE'S JUST SO FLUFFY CUTE!
